Recruitment Notes

This is advanced professional or supervisory accounting work in the application of established accounting principles and methods in the preparation, maintenance, analysis and control of financial records.   

Employees in this class are responsible for planning, assigning and reviewing the work of subordinate accountants and clerical employees engaged in the preparation and analysis of financial statements and reports, classifying, balancing and maintaining journals and ledgers and performance of related accounting duties.  Some incumbents in the class exercise significant responsibility as the reviewing authority for reimbursement by State and Federal agencies for locally expended funds.  Work differs from that found in the Accountant 1 class in that these positions require more advanced knowledge of accounting theories, principles and practices as well as governmental accounting procedures, and involve supervisory responsibility of a more advanced nature.  Incumbents exercise considerable independent professional judgment in solving problems that arise within their assigned areas, and are called on to develop and design new and revised accounting procedures or systems as the need demands.  Supervision is typically exercised over a group of subordinate accountants and clerical employees who assist in various accounting, collection and related activities.  Supervision is received from a professional or administrative superior who reviews accounting records, statements and reports for attainment of desired quality of results and adherence to professional accounting standards and program guidelines.  Completed work is also subject to periodic internal or external audit.
